After a week with no new beta builds, we're back with Build 18663! No new character models, but many bugs should be fixed. There are new Season 16 3D models, as well as upcoming transmog items that resemble the armor on the character selection screen!

We also datamined two interesting variations on WoD weapon enchants, Poisonous versions which is Rogue-only and Hidden which states "This enchantment has no discernable glow or sparkle. It is completely invisible when applied to a weapon." Example: Mark of the Frostwolf (Poisonous) and Mark of the Frostwolf (Hidden)

10pm EST: NPCs and Quests added to the database.Another new build for the Warlords of Draenor beta is on its way! There are no new questing zones open, but there are many bugfixes. In addition the Dark Portal in Tanaan Jungle is now red, instead of green:

Several Garrison buildings have gotten updates. Here are some of the more interesting ones:Tannery: Sells a variety of tents that offer a well rested buff if used on logout. Also allows up to 3 work orders at once.

Tailoring Emporium: Sells a variety of placeable banners, pennants, and flags, which have various effects.

Storehouse: Enables access to your personal bank and increases the total number of active work orders for all buildings

Mastery: Wild Quiver was replaced with Mastery: Sniper Training. When you stand still for X, you gain Sniper Training for 6 sec, which increases your damage, shot range, and critical strike damage by 4%.

A new Warlords of Draenor Alpha build is on its way. For a complete list of our past Warlords of Draenor coverage including class guides, Frostfire Ridge rare spawns, and Garrison tools, check out our WoD Content Hub.

Patch Highlights

New abilities for Garrison followers, including ones that reduce the travel time of missions.

New Elekk Plushie battle pet. According to TheCrafticus, this pet acts like a regular stuffed animal and just stares at you when summoned, and then takes a beating in combat. He also tweeted a picture of this pet, shown to the right.

Inscription was updated so that all glyphs will come from non-cooldown research spells in 6.0. A full list of these spells can be found here

New Darkmoon Joker cards like Moon Joker. According to TheCrafticus, you can trade a joker for any card in the set. They are rarely made when creating a Darkmoon tarot.

While the tooltips appear to imply that you no longer have to be an engineer to use Tinkers, Jonathan LeCraft has clarified that you still have to be an Engineer. The necessity is now implied rather than stated.

New 3D armor sets for Mage, Monk, and Shaman Mythic!

New "Scenarios" have been introduced to provide guidance in old dungeons. You can see more information below.

Questing

When questing, you now have a small chance for your reward to be a rare or epic version instead. When this happens, you'll get a special loot toast (similar to what you see when you win something via a bonus roll).

Rare items are +5 ilvls higher and epic items are +10 levels higher than the base item. For example, the rare version of Frostwolf Hunting Crossbow was ilvl 515 and the epic version would be 520.

It's time for another Warlords of Draenor build update! The latest Warlords of Draenor patch notes included some major changes to Balance Druids that are reflected in today's data. As usual, take all datamining with a grain of salt and refer to patch notes for the list of official changes.

Patch Highlights

There's a special achievement for getting Warlock green fire at level 90:

Vanity items are now categorized as toys and we have a preliminary list of what will be in the toybox. We've listed the items below and organized them by type! Learn more about the toybox here.

The Encounter Journal is now twice as large for Warlords!

There is a new section in the build, called Character Upgrade Tier which includes things like Basic Combat Mechanics, Advanced Combat Mechanics, Control Mechanics, Cooldown and Area Spells, Abilities Fully Unlocked. This is likely to relate to the zone we've heard about as a place for new level 90s to have a DK-esque start zone, so that new level 90s or a returning players to not be overwhelmed by picking up all their abilities and mechanics at once.
